Providing the perfect before-and-after-party for Bassnectar, last year's Warped Horizon event was a major success (read our review here). Now that Nectar's New Year's celebration has moved to Atlanta, Warped Horizon has also relocated from Birmingham, Alabama, to the south side of the A, set to take bassheads into 2018. With G Jones returning as headliner, the rest of the phase-one flyer is looking good, with rare appearances from Of The Trees and Eazybaked, as well as some downtempo goodness from Govinda. Also billed is a back-to-back with Esseks and Freddy Todd which is sure to blow minds. Regional favorites Zen Selekta, Organik, and Hyperbolic Headspace are featured on the undercard as support, and there is even more due to come with the phase-two announcement.
